History of Russia – Lesson 5 –Brutally killed IGOR
Показать описание
Prince Igor
Igor was a Varangian ruler of Kievan Rus' from 912 to 945.
Information about Igor comes mostly from the Primary Chronicle. This document has Igor as the son of Rurik, the first ruler of Kievan Rus':
Remember that in his deathbed, Rurik bequeathed his realm to Oleg, who belonged to his kin, and entrusted to Oleg's hands his son Igor', for he was very young.
Oleg set forth, taking with him many warriors from among the Varangians, the Chuds, the Slavs, the Merians and all the Krivichians. He came to the hills of Kiev and saw how Askold and Dir reigned there. He hid his warriors in the boats, left some others behind, and went forward himself bearing the child Igor'. He thus came to the foot of the Hungarian hill and sent messengers to Askold and Dir. And Oleg said to them, "You are not princes nor even of princely stock, but I am of princely birth." Igor' was then brought forward, and Oleg announced that he was the son of Rurik. They killed Askold and Dir, and after carrying them to the hill, they buried them there, on the hill now known as Hungarian, where the castle of Ol'ma now stands.
After Oleg’s death, Igor has become a ruler of Rus’. He besieged Constantinople twice, in 941 and 944, and although Greek fire (incendiary weapon used by the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire to set light to enemy ships) destroyed part of his fleet, he concluded with the Eastern Roman Emperor Constantine VII a favorable treaty (945), the text of which the chronicle has preserved. In 913 and 944 the Rus' plundered the Arabs in the Caspian Sea during the Caspian expeditions of the Rus', but it remains unclear whether Igor himself had anything to do with these campaigns.
The death of Igor was an important point in Russian history. In the next lesson, you will understand why. Igor was killed while collecting tribute from the Drevlians tribe in 945. The Byzantine historian and chronicler, Leo the Deacon, describes how he met his death: "They had bent down two birch trees to the prince's feet and tied them to his legs; then they let the trees straighten again, thus tearing the prince's body apart."
In the next lesson, you will meet Igor’s wife Olga who was the first female ruler of Russia.
